rundll.exe 12 Posted September 30, 2010 Some minutes ago the IDEA twitter announces that this afternoon the first part of a series of developer interviews will be published! I hope we can learn a bit about the future of BIS, and their daily work. Lets sees which dev is the first. On top of that, its a nice piss on CodeMashers with their -what are your hobby's and favorite games- dev-interviews :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rundll.exe 12 Posted September 30, 2010 Seems there is the usual delay from BIS in the reports ;) Well at least we have this: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?p=1759973#post1759973 Sounds like BIS is doing good and increasing the cooperation is always a nice thing. Maybe this increases the chances of seeing an ArmA3 too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pauldarrington 9 Posted September 30, 2010 Recently released standalone expansion pack to the leading PC military simulator Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead and DLC Arma 2: British Armed Forces will be followed by new titles in the near future: Pound of Ground: crazy action game from a 3rd person view with tons of zombies. Sounds interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zipper5 74 Posted September 30, 2010 I gotta hand it to the guy who made the new website. It's pretty snazzy! :D But one question: are you guys not allowed to show the OFP box arts in the back catalogue? :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rundll.exe 12 Posted September 30, 2010 (edited) I gotta hand it to the guy who made the new website. It's pretty snazzy! :DBut one question: are you guys not allowed to show the OFP box arts in the back catalogue? :( Wow nice website indeed, its only up for a few hours then. I think they wanted to avoid any of those "operation flashpoint is a registered trademark of CodeMashers" legal text on the page. Cant blame them ;) The Pound of Ground thing doesnt even look that bad :P Do not expect over political correctness, do not look for complexity: your character is knee deep in trouble and the solution is rough, wild and decisive action. Sounds like some insta-action fun! Edit: I thought the other thread is locked, but it's not. Maybe move these posts to there? Its a wee-bit offtopic here.

Big Dawg KS 6 Posted October 1, 2010 Edit: I thought the other thread is locked, but it's not. Maybe move these posts to there? Its a wee-bit offtopic here. Not locked, but has been moved/merged to BI News section. Regular users can't post there. Not sure why they merged it, it would have been fine to use as a discussion thread. :confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gossamersolid 155 Posted October 1, 2010 I'm interested in these interviews. Maybe hints at next arma game or next dlc/free addons coming our way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dawg KS 6 Posted October 1, 2010 I'm interested in these interviews. Maybe hints at next arma game or next dlc/free addons coming our way? I'd say the first one is about AI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
royaltyinexile 175 Posted October 4, 2010 Seems there is the usual delay from BIS in the reports ;) I know you wouldn't expect anything less..! There was a small miscommunication, which delayed the whole process. Expect the interview to be released soonâ„¢. I'll come out right now to prevent any disappointment: the first piece does not focus upon AI; however, one of our senior programmers is currently being tracked down.. it's just taking a while due to pathfinding issues ;) RiE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoRailgunner 0 Posted October 8, 2010 Looks a bit like BIS devs have to work in "comfortable" dungeons. No windows, no daylight, old posters - no cookies and nothing to drink? :huh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
royaltyinexile 175 Posted October 8, 2010 No windows, no daylight, old posters - no cookies and nothing to drink? :huh: You'll just have to wait until you see a certain Dutch table. It physically strains under the weight of all the goodies placed upon it.. RiE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoRailgunner 0 Posted October 8, 2010 OK, meanwhile something good to look at... http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ioD6UOQqcyA/TEnD35BIMbI/AAAAAAAAF-4/VO__r3XzTj4/s1600/www.wallpapermaniacal.blogspot.com-26.jpg btw is there somewhere a actual picture of all people working at BIS? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jennik 0 Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) btw is there somewhere a actual picture of all people working at BIS? :) There is none. There was an attempt on the latest company meeting, but we were so many it turned out to be almost impossible :) Edited October 8, 2010 by Jennik typo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
